SOUR GRAPES,

It is comical to hear the chorus sung
by papers at cross-road points like Ness
City, Scott City, and SO on, to the effect
that Wa-Geeney is dead town. Wa
Keeney has at least twice the actual
wealth of any of them. She is better
built than any two of them. There is
not a vacant building of any kind in Wa
Keeney. Building and other improve
ments are going forward constantly. Our
business men are doing well. Wa-Kee-
ney has excellent schools and churches
and as good society as any community in
the proud state of Kansas can boast
What more do you want, you fanciful
newspaper yelpers? We will tell you.
Recognizing, as you do, the prosperity OF
Wa-Keeney, you want to divert public
attention from her to your own less
favored communities. That your success
is not all you could wish, is amply attested
by the prolongation of your yelping.
Sour grapes are poor things on which
TO base boom.

WICHITA WAYS.

Here is paragraph from the Atchison
CHAMPION which Wa-Keeney boomers
would do well to assimilate thoroughly
This plan, if followed closely, will develop
any community, and don't you forget it
The writer heard Cal. Murdoch tell,
quietly and modestly, the story of his
newspaper, the Eagle, and it was the
story of Wichita. He began it's publica-
.tion when Wichita was small village,
and from that day to the present he had
never, he said, solicited an advertisement
the people of Wichita had kept the
columns of the Eagle crowded with adj
vertisements, at the best rates, without
solicitation. Whenever he published an
issue containing "boom" article, every
man in the city bought extra copies, and
sent them broadcast over the East. Sc
the Eagle had been able, always, to pre-
sent Wichita in its best light, and what.
ever it said about Wichita was sure of q
wide circulation through the distribution
made by the people.

STATE FORESTRY STROKES.

Nothing could match with any thing
else more appropriately than the rains do
with the infant trees at Forest Station
No. l.
The editor of the Wa-Keeney World,
as member of the legislature, secured
the passage of the forestry law, which we
give herewith. AS Dodge City is named
as the second station, our citizens will be
interested in knowing something about
the law Dodge City Times.
The catalpa, of which liberal quantity
of seed has been planted at Station No.
l, is ranked as one of the most desirable
trees. In setting these trees, they can
be used for the double purpose of wind
breaks and posts for wire fence. One
great advantage in this is that stock will
not browse on the leaves of the catalpa.

Mr.. ANsTINE, JR., according to
the Oakley Opinion, was one of a party of
Grinnell people who, on Monday of last

Finally, Anstine shot himself in thigh,
inhicting a painful wound. He was re-
